Well, it was time to get 0.8 out of the way. So here's 0.8 stable.
(I'm calling it stable instead of final in case I want to bugfix it )

The big changes in 0.8 are the BIH, hybrid mode, and RQMC stuff, plus the
new diffuse transmitter material and working normals for the blend material

so what have you planned for 0.9?

heh... Gonna be breaking some xml format

lol

noooooooooo!

*cries*

muhahaha!

Great Nick, thank you very much.

Great
One question though.
What was fixed in null material in 08t3 ?
Was it this "rays not passing buy" bug or something else?

I totally busted the null material in test2, or test1.

Thank you Very much ono!

Thanks the release Ono!

I hope you someday drop some lines about your planed 0.9 Features...
Atm Indigo rocks hard, the only serious issue, is the massive RAM needed for displaying you renders
